Missed this (and the rugby on Sunday :( ), though it sounds like Liverpool should have been well up at HT - 15 to nil with regards to shots on target? A couple of daft mistakes also seem to have allowed manure back in/to take points. So the Arse now back in Pole Position it appears.... :(

It’s so tight at the top, it requires all three teams to maintain Image % record to keep things as they are - of course it’s possible but historically things don’t always go as planned!!

Premier League 2023-24

It’s certainly looking like the most exciting finish to the season for many years, with the top three all with a genuine chance to lift the trophy.

At the bottom, Sheffield Utd and Burnley look doomed and only a brave man would put much money on the third place going to someone other than Luton or Nottingham Forest, although they have both done fairly well just recently, so the others above need to avoid dropping too many points.

See statement re further 2 points which is double what Forest got for a larger spend breach... allegedly

Just when you think things can't get worse...:
Sheffield United will start with a two-point deduction the next time they play in the Championship, following a ruling by the EFL. The Blades broke EFL rules by defaulting on payments to other clubs during their 2022-23 promotion season.

'Quins won didn't they? :roll: But then again, Wrexham won 6-0 to gain promotion to League One.... Probably means just a couple of years before they'll be meeting Spurs then? :thumb: :wink:

Just seen one of the most bizarre goal conceded by Burnley - the goalkeeper completely fluffing a back pass and allowing the ball to creep over the line - different circumstances but the goalie was also responsible for conceding a goal against Everton last week - it’s things like this that will send them down at the end of the season!!

AAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!! NONONONONONO!!!!!!!!!

Wouldn't you just believe it? The one time I reluctantly force myself to support Arsenal in the hope that they'll do us a favour and win comfortably, they play like a bunch inept 10-year olds - Villa winning 2-0 in the 87th minute.... :cuss: :cuss: :cuss: :guns: :tosser:

Definitely looks like City’s title after yesterday’s results - at this stage of the season City are normally at their strongest so I’d be amazed if they don’t go on to lift the title!!
At the other end, the third relegation spot still seems to be between Everton, Forrest and Luton, with Everton in the best position having 2 games in hand.

Forest go to Everton on Sunday

That may or may not make things a little clearer
